I have decided to go digital. Do you know if there will be special books or guides about this game? Do you know where I can pre order them?

I have seen maybe only like 2 arts. I have unistalled Twitter. Never visited that spoiler thread and will never do it, even if it's not that spoiler heavy as some people say. I want to see things revealed oficially, in a trailer, with a context. I would never betray you EPD3. Never.
 
Apparently the OLED is leaking (again), let’s keep that discussion in the other thread for the time being, since it hasn’t been unveiled by Nintendo. I looked at the images, it doesn’t seem like there’s anything in the images themselves though we didn’t see 7 weeks ago. I think there’s a description being posted though, I saw a few words of the description before I stopped reading and it had spoilers.

I'm assuming that's a fan made version because it's really bad quality. Zoom in on bottom of left joy-con.
Maybe Nintendo just started using MS Paint for their promo shots but I doubt it
 
Ha, we know from the CE symbols that the OLED was real, but these pics are less convincing.

Reddit Gamingleaks

Scrutinizing the photos and reading what other people have said, the photos (and description) could be fake. We've seen many fake leaks appear right after the 1st photos of the Zelda OLED, someone tries to ride the lowered amount of skepticism generated as a by-product from the hype from the real info, to get a pass on their leaks/photos that would be more heavily scrutinized in a less-hyped environment.....I call it Hype Theory.
 
That OLED looks so much better like this. I'm sad cause it's coming way too late in the Switch lifecycle and i will just wait for the successor at this point.
Also, yea Nintendo is def going at PAX. We will get a trailer and some treehouse gameplay for sure. I do think there will be another short trailer and pics revealed before then. Their twitter accounts are really putting the emphasis on the game and i doubt they will just go another month without new material.

Looks like Nintendo presence in the PAX East is confirmed and they have a pretty decent chunk of space. Totk is going to be playable there 100%, so we will get a trailer before March 23rd.

That's what I am thinking.

Yep, as expected I think Treehouse has a 100% chance too before PAX.
 
We were always gonna get another trailer sooner than later, this just confirms it. I'm expecting another info dump in a couple of weeks (including the new OLED).
 
This is a really exciting time to be a Nintendo fan. A Metroid Prime remaster that is one of the best-reviewed games in the last 5 years, Pikmin 4 finally real, a sequel to one of the GOATs coming in a few short months, and possibly even Prime 4 before end of year. Even without Prime 4, throw in a few titles like 2D Mario, more GBA titles, etc., and this will be the best Switch year for me since at least 2019, if not 2017, if not EVER

Don’t forget the Mario movie coming out in a few weeks which seems beyond expectations and the Super Nintendo World opening up around the world.

The Switch era is a blessing.

Soooo we got a post friday as well. Maybe they will be showing pictures every week day. Hopefully they get into new material too.

I just love that tower design in the two shots on the right. I cannot wait to see more of this game’s architecture first hand.

Are they the same area, or are we seeing multiple towers that look like this?

Same area I think - likely the tutorial

I will bump this thread in support of your spoiler-evading endeavours.

I hope TotK finds an excuse to bring back the duo missions seen in BotW. Not only did the score for these sequences kick ass, it was nice to see characters from all of the different settlements get involved in the action.

Those were some of my favorite pieces of music in the game, actually ❤️
 
I'm looking forward to the next trailer of this game, hopefully it happens soon. Personally as I said in the PAX thread I expect something, maybe just the OLED being announced, on the 8th.

By the next trailer tho I'm sure this thread will be more active, as really most of what the art book contains is stuff we were likely to see before the game launched anyways.

EPD3 if you're watching give Lukas, me and the rest of the fellowship free stuff. Forgot to include Karmitt actually and I don’t know if chocolate saw the leaks or not,

I’ve been tainted by a picture of a known enemy that a friend showed me. It’s totally innocuous and might as well be straight out of Breath of the Wild. Tainted none-the-less.
 
Whenever I see that thread here on front page I just remember what Aonuma, Fujibayashi and Co. would think, how low they might feel when it got leaked so early and then I instantly think I am good.
 
I understand that some people are so desperate for the info so they checked the leak. But like I have waited 2 whole years for new info so less than 3 months before launch is literally nothing now.

Not to mention that it will be a hell once the stores broke the street date 7-10 days before launch. Spoilers will be literally everywhere. That will be the time to go perfect dark.

I'm glad there's a more positive environment to talk about this game both for those who are spoiled and the spoiler free. It got kind of grating to hear certain arguments repeated over and over... y'know what I mean.

But yes once the game actually leaks I'm putting my foot down. A bonus artbook is one thing, if I get spoiled on major story beats or locations I'll be sad mad. Smad.

so I;m expecting were not going to be able to go to the final boss whenever we want this time around

Maybe we can sill, I imagine we could create a quick flying vehicle and head straight to the final boss if we want to, in a relatively short amount of time. However it might take speed runners longer to get to the final boss (most likely Ganondorf) in TotK than BoTW even in the quickest scenarios.

Y'all gotta put threads on ignore if they bother you

Hell, I put the spoiler thread on ignore to cut out the temptation, and now it's like it doesn't exist! All hunky dorey
